Chapter 66 - Another Package?

Amy hasn't been able to keep her thoughts in order since that suprise package was delivered to her desk yesterday. She had a feeling that it had come from Blake, or maybe that was what she wished for.

How great would it be to if those chocolates had from Blake...that would be so awesome.

The rational part of her kept telling her those were only wishful thinking and those chocolates are definitely not from Blake and might have been from a secret admirer or probably for Lair, but she didn't think her brother would be thoughtful enough to send her chocolates at work, and even when she had asked him yesterday, he had made it clear they didn't come from him.

Amy was lost in her thought when she heard a knock on her desk. She raised her gaze to find the company messenger standing across her desk with a cheery smile on his face.

"Good day ma" He greeted with a polite bow.

"Good day" Amy greeted back. She raised a brow at him.

"Ma Please sign here" the messenger said passing her the proof of delivery for her to sign on.

"Another package?" Amy asked curiously. It wouldn't be another box of chocolates would it?

"Yes" The messenger replied handing the a medium sized box to her with a pink ribbon tied around it.

"Really?" Amy asked with her eyes inspecting the box in his hands. She slowly reached for it and signed on the POD that had been given to her.

"Yes ma"

"Thank you" Amy said before fixing her eyes on the box in her hands.

She looked around the box to check if anything was written on it, but unlike the first time there was no note nor was anything written on it.

Amy looked at the box as a myriad of questions ran through her mind. She knew the box contained chocolates.

Could this really be from Blake? Maybe this was his way of apologizing for his behavior at the party. Amy shook that thought out of her mind. Blake had apologized to her when he had come asking endless questions about her relationship with her brother. She didn't think he'd go as far as sending her chocolates. And not only has it been delivered twice, they were really expensive chocolates.

Amy decided to stick with the fact that it might have been from a secret admirer in her workplace. But why was that person not Blake? She pouted sadly.

That guy is just a fool! He only knows how to smile and flirt around but he is really dumb!!! Very dumb! Amy cussed in her heart. She picked up the box to thrash it in the waste bin when she heard someone call out her name before grabbing the box from her hand.

"Amy what are you doing?" Jade asked with a frown.

"Jade?" Amy called in surprise.

"Why are you here? Shouldn't you be at work?" Amy asked curiously.

"And that's why I'm here. I'm working" Jade replied as she opened the box of chocolates. A smile appeared on her face when she discovered what was inside the box.

She furrowed her brows as a frown spread across her face, "Why are you throwing this away?" Jade asked with a stern look.

"Give me that" Amy said without answering Jade's question. She tried snatching it from Jade's hand but she wasn't quick enough.

"No way. You're just going to thrash it and it would all go to waste" Jade rebuted.

"That's none of your business. Just hand it over" Amy ordered with her hand stretched.

"No tell me why you're so angry at this. It's a gift right?" Jade asked interestedly. She had decided to pay Amy a surprise visit on her way out. She watched from the door as Amy facial expressions changed like a chameleon's camouflage. Amy had been lost in her trail of thoughts that she didn't notice her walk up to her desk. It was not until Amy had tried putting the box in the waste bin that she suddenly spoke up to stop her.

"Who said it's a gift? Are you implying I can't get that for myself? " Amy said with an accusing tone.

"Then you won't mind me having it" Jade said as she slowly opened the box again. She had no intentions of eating it, but she wanted to see Amy's reaction. She could tell something was wrong with her friend.

"Have it if you want" She said before plopping down on her seat. "It's not like it came from him anyway" Amy mumbled under her breath. Jade clearly heard her mumurings but she acted like she didn't as she closed the box and sat opposite Amy.

"What are you doing here? You're supposed to be at Xenox right?" Amy asked as she kneaded her temples. She remembered Jade had not answered her question earlier.

"Don't tell me you forget about our last conversation over the phone" Jade asked back.

"And what was it about?" Amy asked making Jade sighed in resignation. She was too lazy to hassle her brain for that.

"I was asked to sign a contract with your boss" Jade told her.

"What?" Amy was shocked. Her eyes widened as she looked at Jade in disbelief.

"You're here to sign ProGuard with my boss?" Amy asked in disbelief. How did this happen?

"Yep" Jade replied with a smile on her face. She was pleased with that expression on Amy's face. This was the same expression she was looking forward to see on Cale and Stephanie's face when they find out she had gotten the contract.

"And??" Amy asked curiously.

"What do you think?" Jade replied as the smile on her face widened. Jade covered her ears when Amy squealed excitedly. Amy covered her mouth with hands when she realized she was screaming and her colleagues were staring at her.

"Sorry" She apologized before walking around her desk. She pulled Jade by the hand and led her out of her office to the cafeteria on the 3rd floor. It was empty at this time of the day.

"How did this happen? You're just an intern. Wait, what happened to Mrs Lim? Why did she send you? Was this a test or what?" Amy rambled on, while Jade laughed at her friend's reaction.

"Hold on. I'll tell you everything" Jade told her.

"Okay, be quick. Out with it" Amy said impatiently. Her curiousty was eating her alive.

"So it all started like this" Jade started.

Amy eyes bulged out and her mouth was agape after Jade finished narrating what had happened. What followed was another round of a deafening scream from Amy. She pulled Jade into a tight hug. She was that happy for Jade.

She had never thought something this good would happen to her friend so soon. This was great news. But what she was most happy about was that Cale and Stephanie would soon receive the biggest shock of their life.

"Shh...Stop screaming" Jade chided with a smile.

"I can't wait to see the look on those scumbags faces. That would be so good to see. I'd love to make a video of their sick faces when they receive this news. That would be so fulfilling" Amy said excitedly.

"Jade I'm so proud of you" Amy said as she pulled her in for another hug.

"Thank you"

"And Jade you should dress like this more often. You look spectacular" Amy said as she let go of Jade. She really loves this new Jade. This was a huge leap from her old self. She was taking things into her hands and making decisions for herself. She could only wish for more.

"Alright that's enough. I still have to report back to work" Jade told her as she grabbed her bag. She wasn't ready for another dress up lesson. But that didn't mean she wouldn't listen to Amy's advice.

"Okay. Don't forget to send me a video of that vixen and her lover" Amy said making Jade shake her head in disbelief.

"I'll try"

"Okay. Congrats on being the newest staff of Xenox" Amy cheered.

"Thank you. And tell your crush I liked his gift" Jade said with a wink making Amy blush.

"Who said it's from him?. It could be from someone else, you know?"

"And I thought you bought it?" Jade teased. Amy was speechless. She had given herself away. Now she wasn't going to hear the end of this.

"Go away. You've become a bully" Amy said with a frown. She was embarrassed that she couldn't keep up with her lie.

"Whatever" Jade waved as she walked away with a smile on her face.. Amy should wait till she tells Lair. That would be Epic!
